Welcome to Right There Plumbing!
Selling a home is a stressful race to the finish line, and nothing stalls a closing faster than a laundry list of code-compliance issues on a home inspection report. When a real estate contract hangs in the balance, you need swift, decisive action to keep the sale moving forward.
Customer Issue: A local homeowner in Frankfort had their property under contract but the buyer’s inspection repair list turned up a series of plumbing curveballs. The list ranged from a primary bathroom toilet leaking into the crawl space subfloor to loose vanities, high-priority gas safety checks, multiple slow-draining sinks, and unstrapped dishwasher discharge lines.
What We Did: David and Everett on our team stepped in to tackle the punch list with efficiency. They pulled and reset the primary toilet with new wax rings and a braided supply line to eliminate the leak. They verified the propane tank gas connections, tightened down a loose kitchen faucet, and permanently secured loose sink bowls to their vanities using commercial silicone. Finally, they deployed a drain machine to snake out clogged lines and correctly strapped up the dishwasher drain lines into high loops above the sink baskets to prevent contaminated backflow.
Result: A fully repaired, code-compliant plumbing system completed in one single visit. The seller received the clean documentation needed for the contract within the required sale closing window, ensuring a smooth final walkthrough.
Why It Matters: Inspection reports often bundle quick repairs with major structural or safety risks. For instance, an improperly looped dishwasher drain or a minor subfloor toilet leak can breed mold and rot over the long haul. Hiring a licensed plumber ensures that every minor adjustment satisfies code and good plumbing design principles, transforming an intimidating list into verified relief for both buyers and realtors.
